Haha, what a stupid loser, wasting time shaving his head when he could just be letting his hair grow long and not wash it.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is a singular ZIP File heavier than separated files?
3·2 days agoTaking less storage is almost the entire point of a zip file. It only takes more space than the original files in pathological cases (e.g. maybe if you’re trying to compress already-compressed data, like a video file).

7·2 days agoThe Big D (that’s a canon nickname BTW; they use it in Lower Decks) is older than Voyager. Still larger and likely has more firepower, though.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•New Starfeet Academy poster released
12·2 days agoIt’s not even the aesthetic we want; it’s the writing style.
Considering how much humans are attracted to aliens (both depicted in-universe, e.g. Kirk and green women, and IRL, e.g. female fans having the hots for Leonard Nimoy as Spock), nope, I don’t find it odd at all. Let’s be honest: it’s really just the writers projecting humanity’s own proclivities on the aliens anyway.

3·8 days agoI suspect the effect might be less significant in humans (not human cells, whole humans) because of the square-cube law.
It’s proprietary shit. If it’s being left behind, blame the megacorp that makes it, not Linux devs.
I saw it in Morrowind.

The point is, nobody gives a shit about Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, etc. anymore and your argument is stupid.
Every Unix or Unix-like OS that matters in 2025 is either switching from X11 to Wayland or never used X11 to begin with.
I still have almost no idea what PulseAudio and PipeWire even do, aside from them being two of five(!) different audio-related subsystems that any given sound problem might be related to. (The others being OSS, ALSA, and JACK, which I also don’t understand.)

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the number of pedestrians killed by drivers in the U.S. rose by 70 percent between 2010 and 2023English
12·9 days agoNo, that’s ass-backwards. You have to stop catering to drivers first in order to incite them to support building the transit. Politically, it does not, can not, and never will work the other way around.
Your argument is nothing more than disingenuous support for the car-dependent status quo.
“Most Unices” haven’t been relevant for a decade or more. At this point it’s really just Linux, OS X, Android (to the extent it counts as a Unix), and BSD as an also-ran. Obviously OS X and Android don’t care about Wayland or X11 to begin with, so all you’re really saying is that BSD is getting left behind.
Those work fine in Wayland for me.
Meanwhile, my OS switched to Wayland while updating at some point and I didn’t even notice.













For any machines that are too inefficient to be worth continuing to compute with, you could at least save the power supplies for electronics projects. I’ve got some 12V addressable RGB Christmas lights being powered by an old ATX power supply, for example.
